<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nInsurance medicine: at the heart of compensation procedures<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
La insurance medicine<\/strong> intervenes within the framework of insurance contracts (accident, invalidity, provident fund, occupational disease). When a claim for compensation is made, the insurance company often mandates a medical advisor<\/strong>to assess the insured's state of health.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
However, sometimes the conclusions of the medical advisor are contested by the policyholder or his or her lawyer. It is in these cases that a medical second opinion<\/strong> becomes necessary to defend the victim's interests.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The role of medical second opinions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

- \n
- Re-examine the entire medical file<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Creating a new full clinical examination<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Formulate a independent assessment<\/strong> the degree of disability and after-effects.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Provide a medical report that can be used against opposing parties (insurance companies, courts, employers).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
This is essential in the event of insurance dispute<\/strong>If the compensation offered is deemed insufficient or inappropriate to the medical situation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

- Disputes with insurance companies<\/strong>mutual insurance companies or employers.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
